Hardcover vs. Paperback 19

Five years ago, Josh's life changed. Drastically. And everyone in his school, his town—seems like the world—thinks they understand. But they don't—they can't. And now, about to graduate from high school, Josh is still trying to sort through the pieces. First there's Rachel, the girl he thought he'd lost years ago. She's back, and she's determined to be part of his life, whether he wants her there or not.Then there are college decisions to make, and the toughest baseball game of his life coming up, and a coach who won't stop pushing Josh all the way to the brink. And then there's Eve. Her return brings with it all the memories of Josh's past. It's time for Josh to face the truth about what happened.

If only he knew what the truth was . . .

Gotta go with the paperback in this case. I think for the most part simple is always better. I like the paperback's color palette much more as well as the title treatment.

I prefer the hardback--it's harder to ignore. I think the paperback cover would be easy to overlook on a bookstore table. Plus, not exactly thrilled about the apple as a O; even if it's relevant to the story, I don't care to find out about it.
